deanders Posted December 22, 2015 Report Posted December 22, 2015 Does anyone know where the 20 amp inline fuse for the ampmeter is located? The wiring diagrams shows one installed but doesn't show the location. My ampmeter will not show a charge or discharge. Dennis
Guitarmaster Posted December 22, 2015 Report Posted December 22, 2015 I mean this in the nicest possible way, good luck! It could be anywhere & I do mean anywhere. The easiest way is simply to trace the wire from its origin until you find it. It is a pain in the butt, but really the only way to track it down. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk
Guitarmaster Posted December 22, 2015 Report Posted December 22, 2015 This is the only place I can find fuses in the ammeter circuit. I don't know where you're seeing a 20 amp fuse at. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk

deanders Posted December 22, 2015 Author Report Posted December 22, 2015 Yes I meant to say 10 amp fuse. Any idea where to look?
Yetti Posted December 23, 2015 Report Posted December 23, 2015 I would think there is only one plug that goes through the firewall up high. Remove the Starboard radio access panel. I think the mag P Leads also are in that plug
RLCarter Posted December 23, 2015 Report Posted December 23, 2015 mine is under the right hand access cover just in front of the windscreen, if you have the 201 windscreen and the panels have sealed off its going to be a pain, it's at the upper right corner area aft of the firewall 65 E
Guest Posted December 23, 2015 Report Posted December 23, 2015 The ammeter shunt is usually located high on the firewall on the right side. The two inline fuses are within a few inches of the shunt in the wires leading to the instrument cluster. Clarence
carusoam Posted December 23, 2015 Report Posted December 23, 2015 As Clarence points out... Find the shunt, the ammeter is technically a voltmeter measuring the voltage drop across the shunt. The drawing is showing two 10 amp fuses. Try using a continuity test across each fuse. If one is burnt or broken it should be easy to find this way. Expect a broken wire or oxidized connector may be a problem as well. Best regards, -a-

jamesm Posted December 24, 2015 Report Posted December 24, 2015 On my '67C they were on there were 2 fuse holders (10 Amp ea) on the right side panel the were not inline fuse holders. I have since moved the fuses to the firewall in a dual gang inline fuse holder . The original setup the fuse holders took up too much panel space and were in the way.
